FY-012 Introduction to Being Human

This module will focus on introducing what it is to be human from a broad humanities and social science perspective. It will offer the opportunity to engage with key ideas, theory and literature within these disciplines. It will therefore prepare students for further academic work in the humanities and social sciences and initiate the development of critical thinking and creative abilities.
MS-114 Delivering and Decoding the News

This engaging and hands-on module opens the door to the world of journalism, blending critical insight with practical experience. In the first half, you¿ll dive into the foundational ideas that shape journalism ¿ tracing its evolution and examining how it both reflects and influences social, political, and technological change. Through thought-provoking discussions and real-world case studies, you¿ll explore what journalism is, what it could be, and why it matters more than ever in today¿s complex media landscape. The second half of the module shifts from theory to practice. You¿ll begin developing the essential skills of a journalist: spotting newsworthy stories, writing with clarity and impact, conducting effective interviews, and navigating the ethical challenges of reporting. You¿ll engage with current news events, critically analysing how stories are framed and the effects they have on public understanding. By the end of the module, you won¿t just understand journalism ¿ you¿ll be ready to start doing it. With a strong foundation in both theory and practice, you¿ll gain the confidence and tools to begin producing your own journalistic work.
MS-116 Pitch Invasion: Sport and its Impact on Society

Sport is far more than just a game. This introductory module explores how sport shapes¿and is shaped by¿culture, politics, media, and identity in contemporary society. From the rise of mass media in the 20th century to the explosion of digital and social platforms in the 21st, we¿ll examine how sport has influenced the way we communicate, connect, and consume. Students will investigate the political power of sport on the global stage, the passion and identity of sports fandom, and the ways sport intersects with critical issues such as race, gender, and sexuality. Through key debates and real-world case studies, this module offers a deeper understanding of how sport reflects and challenges the values of the societies in which it exists.
